New-York based photographer Andrew Lamberson, on assignment for The Wall Street Journal, spent Saturday capturing scenes. Choosing not to photograph the shows on stage, he focused on the off-stage spectacles instead.

“Music festivals today seem to be just as much about the attendees as they are the performers,” said Mr. Lamberson, “I was looking for little nuances and quirks that made these people stand out from the tens of thousands there.”
